Tyson aggravated his nagging hamstring late in the offseason and was placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 1. He will practice for the first time today. NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill said it’s possible Tyson plays this week, though he immediately mentioned a potential snap count for the rookie. The Saints likely want to ramp Tyson up slowly to avoid another setback, so we wouldn’t be surprised if he gets in some limited practices this week but is held out of Sunday’s game. Tyson should be stashed in every fantasy format, but managers can’t count on him as even a FLEX play for at least one more week.

Milton, 26, has spent time with three different teams since the Patriots drafted him in the 2024 NFL Draft’s sixth round. He is a towering, mobile, cannon-armed quarterback with enticing traits. His erratic play can also be frustrating. Milton can be added in two-quarterback leagues, though his range of potential outcomes in his first start is extremely wide. He replaces Tanner McKee after a three-game starting stint.

Per Macdonald, Darnold also suffered a rib injury early in the team’s Week 8 loss to the Bears, though that doesn’t appear to be the reason he’s out this week. Darnold is considered week-to-week. Per Macdonald, he won’t go on injured reserve. It’s possible this quad issue is related to the glute issue that sidelined Darnold earlier in the season. Either way, Darnold’s health concerns are now becoming an issue for a Seahawks team that was already struggling to live up to the hype. Drew Lock will draw the start versus Arizona this week. He’ll likely start in Week 10 as well. With two successful appearances under his belt this year, Lock is a somewhat safe QB2 bet for Superflex managers.

Tuten did not practice on Tuesday. Coen told reporters he would get in a limited session today. Tuten himself told Coen he feels better today and he toughed it out through the injury on Sunday. He appears to be on the right side of questionable for Thursday’s contest, but fantasy managers will want to check inactives before kickoff to be sure. If he can’t go, Chris Rodriguez will get the bulk of the carries for the Jags.

Brown’s recurring knee issue flared up during practice last week. He was downgraded to a DNP on Thursday and Friday. The Pats then ruled him out over the weekend. Brown has been dealing with this injury for years, and it was something the Pats acknowledged when they traded for him in the offseason. It wouldn’t be surprising for the team to give him multiple weeks off in preparation for a playoff run. Head coach Mike Vrabel sidestepped a question about putting Brown back on injured reserve. At a minimum, we’re not expecting Brown to suit up this week.

That doesn’t mean Parsons is a “full go” for Week 9 against the Patriots, however, as the pass rusher comes back from a season-ending knee injury in 2025. Parsons could return soon for a Green Bay defense that ranks 12th in pressure rate and 16th in quick pressure rate on the season. Look for the team to ease Parsons into action to make sure he’s OK for the final stretch of the regular season.

Campbell, who was carted off with a frightening neck injury in Week 8 against the Vikings, said in a statement that he is recovering. “I’m incredibly encouraged by the progress I’ve made in such a short period of time,” Campbell’s statement reads, in part. “I have full movement in my lower body, and I’m continuing to make progress with movement in my upper body. I know there’s still work ahead, but I remain very optimistic. I’m taking things one day at a time, staying positive, and focusing on getting better.” Campbell is likely out for the rest of the season, a blow to a Detroit defense that has struggled against both the pass and the run this season.

Hall, barring setbacks in practice, should be OK for Week 9 against the Chiefs. What his workload will look like is another question entirely. Braelon Allen has established himself as an efficient, tough runner over the past few weeks, and could remain the Jets’ lead rusher while Hall takes on most pass-catching opportunities. Though Hall should have some kind of floor in Week 9, he probably doesn’t have much of a ceiling unless the Jets decided to phase out Allen.

Wilson sustained a head injury in Week 8 against the Raiders and now appears to be a long shot for Week 9. Wilson this season has accounted for 27 percent of the Jets’ targets and 38 percent of the team’s air yards. His absence would make both Adonai Mitchell and Omar Cooper flex-viable for Week 9, along with Mason Taylor. Cooper is coming off a game in which he saw no targets while running a route on 75 percent of the Jets’ drop backs.

Cabot said it would be a challenge for Deshaun Watson to clear the NFL’s concussion protocol by Saturday and suit up for Sunday’s game. Watson suffered a head injury in Week 8 against the Steelers and reported concussion symptoms on Tuesday, according to the Browns. Sanders in 2025 was the most inaccurate quarterback in the league and struggled to support fantasy-relevant pass catchers. Harold Fannin could see a boost with Sanders under center after Sanders targeted the tight end relentlessly during his 2025 starts.
